Moments for Inappropriate Humor, 2006 Edition

Today, we’re writing documentation. Specifically, we’re documenting the sixty bazillion (yes) packages and such built into our product. (It appears Java cannot wipe its own ass without including sixty bazillion (yes) frameworks, packages, etc.)

Towards the end of the list, we find one whose name amuses us, and we wonder how wrong it would be to include the following definition and license data instead of the stuff found here:

Saxon
British heavy metal band. Uses little-known “bad artistic license.” No known reasonable or appropriate uses outside dark basements filled with pimply middle school (male) nerds and, optionally, D&D paraphernalia. Inclusion with more than one installation of the product at best unwise and at worst impossible.

Amusingly, the band is actually the second real listing returned by Google. The first is the XSLT tool. This makes us giggle.
